Automatic sync not working (garmin connect app ios)

It used to be that when I opened the garmin connect app (on ios) it would sync automatically and immediately with my watch (sometimes a finished activity might take a couple of minutes, but everything else right away).

Then a few months ago, that stopped working and I had to manually sync every time by pushing the sync icon.

Then a couple of days ago, it worked again (around Sep 10, 2024), and then with the recent update to 5.5.0.23 it broke again.

This is super annoying to me - and there seems to be nothing I can do. Anyone have tips or do I just need to hope for garmin to do better?

Thanks.

  • Same issue here. Once in a while sync to Apple Health is not working or might take even hour. 

  •  I have the same issue. App and ios is up to date. 

  • For the past 2-3 months have had to manually sync with my iPhone.  Rarely would do it automatically, but might be an hour later.  Now I am unable upload my activities from my Garmin 1030.  Shows as connected to Garmin Connect app, but when I sync arrows spin for awhile then stop.  Unable to get activities downloaded to Strava or TP.  This glitch it frustrating.  I am considering switching to Wahoo.  My wife has a Bolt and it is so much simpler to use.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.
